Abstract
Many restaurants use food runners to get the food to the guest as quickly as possible. This is a great practice for getting the food out from under the heat lamps and in front of the guest, but if an operation's POS system is not clear and convenient for indicating ladies' seats, the runner may pick up plates in a haphazard order. In addition, many chef-driven restaurants, small plates concepts and others have done away with courses altogether, timing the food to come out at the expediter's discretion. Erica Hope, a Philadelphia-based server and manager says, The custom is both beautiful and chivalrous. Women who think otherwise are more concerned with insecurity and power than their delicious plate of food and should be punished accordingly.
